The SSUP genes, including Krr1, are highly expressed in proliferating cells, including stem cells and progenitor cells, especially in ESC lines. (sciencedaily.com)
«This is important fundamental basic science about how the genome is protected in rapidly proliferating cells in the brain,» adds Huda Zoghbi, a neuroscientist at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. (sciencemag.org)
For example, a recent study developed a cell proliferation signature that consists of the top 1 % genes whose expression is most positively correlated with that of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). (elifesciences.org)
